New page

Under Gentoo, installing a typcial web application is actually a two-step process:
 
1) you '''emerge''' the application, which typically installs the app under '''/usr/share/webapps/'''''<pkg_name>'' 
2) you then perform a second-stage installation to your web-server doc-root, using '''webapp-config'''
 
 
Why? To support virtual-hosting, and multiple sites being served from a given host, where they may each require different package-versions.
Here's how:
 
 
First, we have the configuration-file '''/etc/vhosts/webapp-config''', which lets us specify the vhost-root (often simply '''/var/www/''<hostname>''''', but sometimes '''/srv/www/''<hostname>'''''. The '''localhost''' will be different in the case where we actually use vhosts, which isn't too common for us; we tend to prefer individual, dedicated vserver-guests, with single-site web-serving in each).
 
 
Typical settings within the '''/etc/vhosts/webapp-config''' file:
vhost_root="/var/www/${vhost_hostname}"
vhost_hostname="localhost"
vhost_server="apache"
 
These commands will '''install''' apps under '''/var/www/localhost/htdocs/'''''<pkg_name>'', with the specific version mentioned at the end of command-line:

webapp-config -I -h localhost -d /mediawiki mediawiki 1.8.5
webapp-config -I -h localhost -d /gallery gallery 2.2.3
webapp-config -I -h localhost -d /awstats awstats 6.5-r1

Commands to upgrade (typical):

webapp-config -U -d /gallery gallery 2.2.5
webapp-config -U -d /mediawiki mediawiki 1.11.2
webapp-config -U -d /awstats awstats 6.7-r2
